With 450 horsepower, it's easy to assume this falls short of expectations for an M2 upgrade. The secret here lies in the base model it's not the M2 but rather the BMW M240i that serves as the foundation for this performance beast.
Power and Performance Upgrades
Under the hood, the BMW M240i is equipped with a 3.0-liter B58 twin-power turbo inline-six engine, producing 374 hp and 500 Nm of torque in its stock form. MANHART Performance takes this powertrain to new heights with the addition of the MHtronik powerbox, pushing the engine's output to a thrilling 440 hp and 600 Nm of torque. For those who want even more power, MANHART offers further Stage 2 and Stage 3 tuning options on request.
The upgraded GRAIL rear silencer, featuring valve control and four signature 100mm MANHART tailpipes, adds an aggressive exhaust note to match the car’s enhanced performance. While the brake system remains untouched, MANHART provides custom brake upgrades as an option for those seeking additional stopping power.
Suspension and Handling
For sharper handling and a lower stance, MANHART offers H&R lowering springs or a KW Variant 4 coilover suspension system. These modifications not only enhance the vehicle’s cornering abilities but also improve its overall road presence.
Striking Exterior Design
Visually, the MH2 450 stands out with its lowered body, which perfectly accommodates the custom MANHART Concave One wheels. These 20-inch rims, measuring 9x20 inches in the front and 10.5x20 inches at the rear, feature a glossy white finish, though customers can opt for custom colors. The tire setup consists of 245/30ZR20 at the front and 285/25ZR20 at the rear, providing excellent grip and handling.
To complement its aggressive stance, MANHART adds a full carbon body kit, including a front spoiler, side skirts, rear diffuser, and a carbon rear spoiler. A MANHART trim set further enhances the exterior, giving the MH2 450 a unique, race-inspired look.
Interior Customization
Inside the cabin, MANHART adds its signature touches, including a steering wheel with a leather/Alcantara combination, black lacquered spokes, and custom carbon-fiber shift paddles. These details give the interior a bespoke feel, adding to the car’s sporty and luxurious appeal.
The MANHART MH2 450 takes the already impressive BMW M240i to new heights with a perfect blend of power, handling, and visual upgrades. From the increased 440 hp engine output to the sleek carbon body enhancements, this model exemplifies MANHART’s ability to elevate performance and aesthetics. Whether you're looking for a daily driver with track-ready potential or a show-stopping build, the MH2 450 delivers in every aspect.
